1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

The study identifies potential carcinogenic health risk-zone of Chattogram city for the occurrence of trihalomethanes (THMs) at its water distribution network. The EPANET-THMs simulation model along with an empirical model have been adopted in the study to predict THMs content of supply water of the distribution network of the city's Karnaphuli service area. The empirical model has estimated THMs level of supply water based on influential water quality parameters, and few of these have been used as pre-set values for subsequent EPANET simulation. The simulation (R
